Okay, having re-read the code, I'm happy with this now.  I'll see about
testing it out on the platforms I have here in the next few days.  As
I now have a Cortex A15 platform, I can hopefully also check what effect
it has there (assuming ethernet gets fixed on it so I can get programs
onto the platform.)
